Is there a way to disable the use of macros for certain verbs or disable them all together in a game?

there should be something in the built in DM reference about macros and disabling unless it's changed since I've been here.

You can't disable macros and you shouldn't if you could since they are quite useful. But you can limit how quickly you can do something.

mob
  var
    doingstuff
  verb
    DoStuff()
      if(doingstuff)  // If they did DoStuff recently don't let 'em do it again!
        return
      doingstuff = 1  // Flag that they are doing stuff
      src << "You do something!"
      sleep(10) // Wait a whole second before allowing them to do it again
      doingstuff = 0
